Three Dalit Bahujan research scholars were rusticated on May 6th at the English and Foreign Languages University, Hyderabad for participating in a meeting organized by the students’ union to protest against the illegal closure of the library reading room. Surprisingly, these students were active members of various student organizations which constantly strived to expose several corruption charges against the university administration. According to recent media reports, CAG had unearthed financial irregularities in the university to the tune of several crores. It is believed that the action against the research scholars is a punitive measure taken by the university for their role in unmasking these scandals.

It is also alleged that Prof. Sunaina Singh, the vice chancellor of the English and Foreign Languages University, who had no administrative or teaching experience in a central university, was selected for this prestigious position when she was writing the biography of the former president Srimathi Prathibha Patil. We, the undersigned, appeal to the government of India as well as the academicians of this country that the centers of higher education be cleansed of corrupt and ineligible administrators. We express our solidarity with the rusticatedstudentsand request everyone to extent your support for this just cause.
